Re: Do developers use vim exclusively or alternate with an IDE?

C#: Some people may use VIm, if you don't know C# by hart an IDE might
be more productive (for visual studio there are vi keybindings)

Java: For Refactoring, debugging or code browsing using an IDE might be
more productive, there are alternatives such as "Eclim" which try to
bring Eclipse IDE features to Vim for multiple target languages.

Why Vim?
=======
- fast startup
- fast typing
- easy to customize

Quite a lot of IDEs have kind of vi keybindings support.

Well - why not talk about where the mouse is faster? Maybe we can
suggest alternative ways to solve your problem? :)

Python: Vim has repl with completion (eg vim-addon-async or see its
readme for alternatives) - syntastic like plugins make syntax checking
easy.

HTML / CSS: Tag objects such as dat (delete a tag) are useful.
There are additional plugins such as zencoding or sparkup
(eg see some tips here http://vim-wiki.mawercer.de/wiki/languages/html.html)

CSS there is completion support.

JS: I know that some IDEs allow(ed) debugging - AFAIK Vim does not -
firebug etc were good enough for me.
